Abstract
A spinning reel having a reel body (2), a rotor (3) and a spool (4). The rotor (3) is supported on the front of the reel body (2) with freedom to rotate, and has a first arm portion (31) and a second arm portion (32) which are located facing each other such that the rotating spindle is interposed between them, a first bail support member (40) which is fitted to the tip of the first arm portion (31) and which has at its tip a line roller (41) a second bail support member (43) which is fitted to the tip of the second arm portion (32), and a bail (45). The spool (4) is located between the first arm portion (31) and the second arm portion (32). Further, the distance from the rotational axis (X) of the rotor (3) to the center of gravity of the second bail support member (43) is longer than the distance from the rotational axis (X) of the rotor (3) to the center of gravity of the first bail support member (40) including the line roller (41).
